    Kathy - Love the look of the fatter leaves and your placement of light and dark. Gives the block a nicer line.

    Guess which layout I am following when I get to this block!

I had just seen a TV show on the world's largest luxury cruise ship (which had a major disaster on it's maiden voyage, BTW. Imagine ending up getting fed Poptarts & Spam for those $$$!) Anyway, we had a heliport on deck, so anything & everything could be flown in to us. We had one giant room, bigger than any ballroom, just for our sewing area, with rooms off it for each of us to store our stash. This was luxury to the MAX! If we had spent too much time hunched over, we had a masseuse to ease our aches. Needing a life jacket - I don't think so. This boat is as large as New York City! Anything we would possible need was there for us. I thought a cruise ship as since we are from all over, we could spend our golden years traveling from one place to another, visiting every place anyone wanted to & still be able to quilt our hearts away. Plenty of hunks to take care of our every need with a few ladies to see to our more intimate needs, should need be. It was just wishful fun playing. Besides, I'd let you ride on my shoulder for getting from one place to another, so your feet & knees wouldn't be worn out. Do Mousies have knees?
    I'd say from the aching and paining...mousies def do have knees!
    Wow, your take on a cruise ship sounds divine!
    Just as long as the builders of the Titanic aren't involved! ;-)

    I don't think the builders of the icebergs are still around - oh, yes - they are!!! However, I doubt that we will be going anywhere nearly THAT cold. We'll be cruisin' around warmer regions unless we are stopping off to see something really spiffy in those areas.

    Beautiful block Patty. I'm still fighting those tiny points and I think I am going to change the pattern and make fatter points. After all, everything else in my house is fat and lovable so they should fit right in. :roll: :roll: :roll:
    LOL...that fit's right up my alley, losie! :lol:

    Guess it would have been a bit like Oliver and Lisa in Green Acres! He wanted a country life and she wanted to live in the city! :lol:
